اِسمُ العَزيزِ وَقى المُهَيمِنِ ذاته

في قَلبِهِ سِرٌّ عَجيبٌ مُستَتِر

The name of the Mighty protected the Guardian's essence

A wondrous secret lies hidden in his heart

كَم كُنتَ أَتلوهُ وَأَلحَظُ أَنَّهُ

سَيَكونُ مالِكَ مِصرِنا غَيرَ حَزَرِ

How often did I recite it and observe that he

Will be Egypt's king, none could have guessed

وَلَقَد تَحَقَّقَ وَالعِنايَةُ لازَمَت

أَعتابَهُ وَاليَمَنُ أَصبَحَ مُستَقر

And it has been fulfilled, providence accompanied

His threshold, good fortune has settled

وَمِنَ العَجائِبِ أَن أَى تاريخُهُ

مِن غَيرِ واحِدٍ مُثبَتِ الخَبَرِ يُسرِ

And of the wonders is that his history

Comes from none with a verified account, it facilitates

فَتَراهُ يَنطِقُ بِالفَخامَةِ قائِلاً

عَبّاسَ سابِعَ مَن تَقَلَّدَ مُلكُ مِصرِ

You see him speak with glory, saying

Abbas, the seventh to assume the kingship of Egypt
